Let's go! The New Manna needs YOU!

The time to be a part of this life changing film is now! Your money will go to the final completion of this movie!

Watch the teaser above! This is only the beginning!

The canonization of Blessed Carlo Acutis is right around the corner this next April 2025 and this film was inspired by this young, life-giving, and faithful boy.

The New Manna is a feature film on Eucharistic miracles where the main actor, a troubled, fatherless nonbeliever is forced to confront the truth of the Eucharist.

In this learning journey, he is faced with irrefutable evidence and is immersed in the live action Biblical scenes like the Road to Emmaus, the Bread of Life discourse, and many more. He also discovers the medical phenomena of the miracles which are brought to life through microscopic hyper-realistic computer generated imaging. His life is shaken and by understanding forgiveness is ultimately reunited with his daughter. In this movie science, faith, scripture, and storytelling will be brought together as the protagonist will reveal to the masses the Real Presence.

What is unique about this film is that the director, Angelo Libutti, a member of an Oscar award winning team, who has worked for ILM, Marvel, Dreamworks, 20th Century Fox, and more is bringing Hollywood veterans to create a stunning movie with CGI of transubstantiation (led by a key artist from Avatar), display the phenomena of these miracles in a way that words cannot explain, and bring Bible scenes to life in a way that has never been done before. See video at the bottom! ⤵️

This movie was featured on EWTN ( see video below ⬇️) as well as numerous Catholic outlets. Many know we need more tools for evangelization and the goal of this film is to provide Catholics with valuable catechetical resources that can be used in parishes around the world. With revolutionary CGI, live-action Bible passages, interviews with the medical doctors involved in the investigations, and a riveting storyline - The New Manna will bring millions of souls to Jesus and be a tool for evangelization like the world has never seen.

We will also feature as bonus material in our App the full interviews of Cardinal Arinze, Antonia Acutis (mother of Blessed Carlo Acutis), Dr. Scott Hahn, and others that were used as reference for this movie. In addition there are animated episodes created by the family of Blessed Carlo Acutis.

This film is not funded by Hollywood, nor do we want it to be! It is up to us in the Church to stand up and support this film! This is a full length feature cinematic production that brings the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist to life!

From day 1 the crew has been hard at work with countless sleepless nights being obedient to God's calling to tell the world about Source and Summit of our faith.

They need our help and we need to put in the work of sharing this fundraiser far and wide. This mission will save and change the lives of many. Please help us by giving, sharing, and communicating the most important story in the world.
